Only having a n00bish-level experience in the hobby, I had a quick question about super glue. Specifically Loctite Brush-On Super Glue. The main question I have about it is this: if I use to build Citadel miniature and then use one of GW's spry primers, is there a risk of having the Loctite dissolve or otherwise damage the model?

Nope, not that I know of, you should be fine. What are you doing for gap filling?

I'm honestly not sure. I'm open to recommendations.

What is it your building most of GW stuff is plastic now so poly cement has a better bond, if it's resin then superglue is best pretty much all superglues are the same. primers won't interact with them, nowadays most of the models have very close build tolerance so gaps shouldn't be a problem

The gap thing is more of aesthetic choice than anything else. Personally, I spend enough time painting a given fig that I don't like being able to see visible gaps or flash lines.

It is a much smaller problem than it used to be when most of the figs were lead or pewter though, that's very true.
